My nephews all look at me differently now. Before, they couldn't relate to me, and now I'm like a god.

Life has all sorts of hills and valleys, and sometimes you don't end up doing what you had your heart set out on, but sometimes that's even better.

Some of those STINKIN' press people just had to make fun of my decision in joining the show. They also made fun of other choices in my life that I was proud of then and still am now!!!

I got everybody on my side through comedy.

I really enjoyed doing the voice of Nose Marie on the cartoon series Pound Puppies. Fun, FUN cast.

The original Dean Martin Comedy Hour handed me some hysterical sketches. I've got highlights on tons of these variety shows, given to me by their great writers. I'd love to be doing all that again.

I created the characters from what I read in the script. I decided how I should talk, accent, no accent, my own voice, or a created voice. Then, I visualize what I should look like.

I really learned the power of the tube on Sesame Street and how it can influence a very young mind.

Its so very important as to what a child watches on TV. I feel for every parent that knows this, and cares, because they only have control of the childs viewing to a certain point.

The funnier the material, the funnier I could make it.

I can laugh on cue, and it sounds real. People laugh with me.

Most of the basic material a writer works with is acquired before the age of fifteen.

Judging a person's maturity by the number of years they've lived is misleading. This is because people mature at different rates.

And we find from Church history that the primitive Christians thus understood it; for that women did actually speak and preach amongst them we have indisputable proof.

I've got a great repertoire with my players.

I received an OBE from the Queen, which probably doesn't mean anything in America but is quite nice in England - the Order of the British Empire for services to drama.

Accepting the apology signals the acknowledgment of a need to move forward, but not necessarily together.

I'm like a one-woman protest machine.

Wealth oft-times killeth, where want but hindered the budding.

I do not welcome advice from actors, they are here to act.

I don't think you ever learn just one thing. At some point you start unlearning things. I have been working hard to unlearn everything I know.
